CURRENT MISSION

I want to get around!

ABOUT ME

I'm a Creative Writing major at Elon University. At school, I work on the literary magazine and am helping build and health care center in rural Ghana through Periclean Scholars. I love all things Africa and food.

I've been bouncing around a lot the past few months. I go to school in a small town called Elon in North Carolina. At home, I live with my parents in Chadds Ford, PA, which is 40 minutes outside Philadelphia. Currently, I'm interning in Washington DC for the summer.

I like to spend time outside riding my bike, running, grilling out, playing frisbee, or just enjoying the nice weather. I go to as many concerts as I can.

Other odds and ends: I have a mini planetarium in my room. I'm chronically three weeks behind on my Economist subscription. I get a (non-drug related) nosebleed a day. But not on your couch.
